Kwnates build thread with a twist

[kwnate]

So my blue car is at Rrev Motorsports getting a few things done. So I'm left with nothing but time...

I bought this beauty awhile back and wasn't sure what to do. It obviously had a bad headgasket because its a 7m :icon_bigg So I tore it apart and put it back together!

Not a bad platform to work from.

So I fixed the HG so good it shouldn't ever blow on me again. Of course I went with a MHG. I'm not done yet but since it fired up today I'm jumping the gun a little. I'll update the thread as I wrap it up.

Here is where we stand

Mods are:
Mines ECU
Chinaman y pipe and downpipe (motherfucker to install even on the pallet)
Blitz Nur Spec exhaust (thanks for the help Tom)
K&N fliter
Koyo Aluminum Radiator
Front mount and hardpipes (from Driftmotion of course)
REAL Tial BOV
Suspension Technique lowering springs
Braided brakelines
Spec Pressureplate w/ stock disc

I won't post an exterior shot until I'm done :icon_bigg
